The Thomas Super Station Works with ALL Thomas Trains!

I’m always looking for ways to get my kids to play with the toys they already have. Sometimes all it takes is a new way to play with them. That’s what happened when my family got the new Thomas Super Station from Walmart.

My Kids LOVE Trains

We got our wooden train table when my oldest was 18 months old. He always spent a long time at the train table exhibit at our local children’s museum.

So, we found one used and I was in awe that he would play there for hours by himself and I could actually get stuff done around the house!

He’s been solidly playing with his Thomas trains for years. It’s great because that’s what my family usually gets him for birthday or holiday gifts.

But, they don’t always understand how many different train sets there are and we now have a mix of Wooden Railway, TrackMaster, and Thomas & Friends Adventures.

Thomas Super Station is Compatible

This set comes with pieces from Wooden Railway, TrackMaster, Thomas & Friends Adventures and MINIS.

We were so excited to see that it worked with mini trains! If you have a Thomas the train advent calendar, they come with mini trains. Now you can use them to decorate this set. It works with the MINIS trains from those blind bags, too!

If you have been gifted random Thomas trains, chances are they will work on this track. We had a huge supply of trains of all sizes that we tested out, including really old trains that we were gifted from friends plus a set from Japan!

So, that means your child can add any Thomas & Friends set to their holiday wish list and you won’t have to worry if it works with the Thomas Super Station.

Setting it Up

Setting up the Thomas & Friends Super Station was pretty straight-forward. It comes with a detailed instruction booklet.

Everything is labeled pretty clearly and it took us about 25 minutes to assemble it.

My husband and I set up the actual station part and then our 4 year old was in charge of the tracks.

I loved how the train tracks have clearly marked numbers on the back (like S2, CS, etc.) My preschooler followed the instructions to build the track design.

Since there are a few ways to configure the Thomas Super Station, it was nice that we could try out a few track options.

Most guys like vehicles such as cars, aeroplanes and trains, so this Thomas Super station is definitely many boys’ dream toy when they are young. I like how they are big and doesn’t have small pieces that will be dangerous!
